Comic 465 - Like The Rain, They Fall- Page 4

Author Notes:

It's weird the amount of stuff in this page I can't talk about. There's something in this script that really excited me when I read it I can't focus on. There's also something about Power throughout this entire chapter thus far we've been doing that I also can't quite point out. It's weird.

One weird thing about this and the previous page is Martin has been pointing out weird things I've missed (which happens all the time, I forget shit constantly) and then I've been fixing them in the next page. The first page with them at the party Alex wasn't wearing glasses. Rather than go back and insert them in, I instead made it so in the next page he starts putting them on while he's leaving since he's going to the car. In the last page Glory's costume didn't have the shirt tucked in so it was hanging loose. In the first panel here she's tucking it in.

The last panel also wasn't meant to look like that and was a result of me drawing it wrong from the script. Originally Power was supposed to be putting her finger under Alex's chin and lifting his head up. I always find huge mistakes like that pretty embarrassing with Wright As Rayne since it's kinda dropping the ball a fundamental level.

EDIT: Okay, to show how often I miss weird details, when I drew this page I forgot Alex's cast in that penultimate panel. Martin asked me to put it back in before submitting it. After I set this page up he asked "So you got that cast right?"

DOUBLE EDIT: Believe it or not this is still a better rate of putting that cast in than the last chapter. In the midst of typing that first edit, I found I also forgot the cast in an upcoming page.

Yeah, I'm really not sure how much I've got to say here myself. Like Adam said, there are actually a lot of little things here kind of setting up other stuff and leading to some things down the line, but can't really get that much into it right now.

In addition to the last panel being changed, it had a bit of dialogue dropped in the process of that - Alex responded to Power's point with, "Get your hands off me." Think it would've been a pretty cool little moment, but miscommunication like this happens and eh, not that big a deal really, the point is still made without it. Still do quite like the visual I have in mind for that though, I might wind up coming up with an excuse to do it down the line.

Yeah, no McShay in this chapter, but O'Hara will be showing up. She's not going to be one of our central characters though, rather limited in just how much she's going to do. As for the other person Power's mentioned... We'll see, but it'll be a little bit.

Incidentally, the waving bit was written into the script if wondering.
